Story

Hi thanks for taking time out to see my web page,

I am Richard Archer a 40 year old man who has decided to have a mid life crisis and try and do a fantastic cycle trip  to raise a sum of money  for Primrose Hospice . The trip will start from  Nice and finish off in  Rome over 5 days covering a total distance of 500 miles . Average 100 miles per day, I am doing this with 6 friends and a back up vehicle. I am the only one who is cycling for Charity, the others are there to push me along !

I am not a cyclist and this is quite a challenge, I started training in November 2007 having had to give up my Rugby  in 2000 due to a knee injury and various other injuries too many to mention. I have found this  new challenge hugely inspiring.

I hope you can Inspire me more by donating and helping me raise a huge amount for the Primrose Hospice.  Having lived in Bromsgrove most of my life, I felt it quite important for me  to raise money to a charity that is in my home town . For evey mile I  cycle I know I will be making a worthwhile difference to a family who I am sure will be going through more pain than I can ever imagine on this trip.

So PLEASE PLEASE  help me make this trip worthwhile, and let's see if we can reach my target or more.

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Primrose Hospice and Cancer Help Centre will receive your money faster, and if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support from the man in Lycra Richard
